  • Primary Share Account $5 Minimum Balance FAQ
    Primary Share Account $5 Minimum Balance FAQ In order to be considered a member in good standing, MCU members must maintain a minimum $5.00 balance in their Primary Share account at all times. Beginning Wednesday, December 11, 2019, if a member does not have the minimum $5.00 balance in their Primary Share account, MCU will transfer $5.00 from any available balance in a member’s other MCU accounts and place the $5.00 into their Primary Share account. 1) Why was $5.00 removed from my account? In order to remain a member in good standing, MCU members must maintain a minimum $5.00 balance in their Primary Share account. A recent review of your MCU account indicated that your Primary Share account did not contain the minimum $5 balance. In this situation, MCU collects the $5.00 from any available balances you may have in other MCU accounts. That is why the $5.00 was transferred from your other MCU account into your Primary Share account. 2) Why wasn’t I notified before you transferred the $5.00 from my other MCU account to my Share account? MCU notified current members by mail in July of this year that effective August 20, 2019, we would start collecting and transferring the $5.00 from your other MCU accounts into your Primary Share account if your Primary Share account balance fell below $5.00 and you did not deposit $5.00 into your account. New members were also notified of this change beginning in June. 3) I didn’t receive a letter from MCU about this change.

The actual functions of a public bank could vary widely, depending on the jurisdiction’s needs. In California, so long as a public bank accepts deposits, it will be regulated as a bank. Cal. Fin.

Neither structure may be fully appropriate for a public bank. ☐ Insurance -- Under California state law, all commercial banks must have FDIC insurance, which insures deposits up to $250,000.
